I Got Rich in Period Fiction-Chapter 597 - 585: Her Revenge

The epidemic prevention departments of the provincial cities and the county towns all sprang into action and sent relevant personnel to Tenghai Research Base, while also phoning their superiors to report the situation.

The authorities took it incredibly seriously.

In Beijing, just two hours after they received the call, Xiao Wei hurried with a set of documents to her leader’s office.

It was a detailed report about the X virus.

Someone carrying the virus intended to sabotage Tenghai Research Base.

Tenghai Research Base, that was the place that produced significant scientific achievements every year, a large-scale research facility with hundreds, if not thousands, of engineers and technicians. It was the largest of its kind in our country and was gaining more and more attention.

We had been so vigilant, but who could have anticipated the enemy would use such a tactic?

Moreover, this method was extremely malicious, impossible to guard against, more terrifying than subverting a scientist.

It was an attempt to destroy our very foundation.

The documents Xiao Wei obtained were not easily come by.

But the virus had already spread throughout Tenghai Research Base. They were maintaining phone communication with the base at all times and would be the first to know the current epidemic situation. Fortunately, because of Zhao Guoqiang’s abnormal behavior, He Xiuyu had Mr. Qi’s people keep a close watch on him; without that surveillance, the discovery might not have been made so timely.

Still, he had come into contact with quite a few people.

It was a situation that was utterly infuriating and exhausting, because the outbreak happened so suddenly, there was just no time to develop the necessary medication.

We can only hope it won’t spread.

Subsequently, several more infections were found. Children were now detained in their homes, not allowed to leave, and the same was true for the whole of New City.

The moment Zhao Guoqiang was admitted to the hospital, Director Lin had already sent people to control Zhang Yurou.

Many people thought Zhao Guoqiang would divorce his rural wife.

After all, no matter how you looked at it, that woman was the weaker party, and even though she had given birth to a genius son, it couldn’t cover up the fact that she was uneducated and in every way unsuitable for Zhao Guoqiang. However, to everyone’s surprise, these two managed to stay together.

Nobody knew what their life together was like, yet it was evident that Qian Guizhi must have taken very good care of Zhao Guoqiang.

He loved to wear white shirts, had worn them in the past, but after a few days, they were no longer clean. However, now, his white shirts were immaculately clean every day, as were his outer clothes and shoes.

Whenever he left the house, just look at his shoes: polished to a shine, not a speck of dust on them.

And he, too, looked radiant and healthy.

Men, actually, are quite complex creatures.

There is a kind of devoted man who, when in love with a woman, is blind to everything else but her, seeing all else as inconsequential. For that woman, he would do anything.

Then there is the kind of man who keeps love and marriage separate.

He enjoys being served by Qian Guizhi with the utmost care as if she were attending to an Emperor, yet he hadn’t cut off contact with Zhang Yurou. Even after Organization spoke with him, he swore he would never do anything wrong. Ever since Qian Guizhi arrived, he and Zhang Yurou had been completely proper.

But who can really tell with such matters?

Not sleeping in the same bed means innocence?

If you like me and I like you, then it’s already not innocent.

Just because two people haven’t slept together, there’s no issue with conduct? That’s a joke.

But what can you do about it?

Qian Guizhi was content, and no one, including Zhou Xiaoqin, who went to see her several times, could do anything about it. What good is such a man to her?

Qian Guizhi’s reasoning was very simple: her child bore the name Zhao, now with the name Zhao Yuan. She couldn’t let her child be without a father or a mother.

As for herself, she didn’t even have any thoughts on the matter.

Yet, she was very competent, and not clumsy with work either. She had even become a small team leader on the farm.

She was truly skilled at farm work, and nobody who worked alongside her could help but praise her.

Initially, with someone like her as the team leader, others would definitely have been dissatisfied, but when Zhou Xiaoqin posted the promotion notice on the door, surprisingly no one said a word.

From this, it was clear that people genuinely respected Qian Guizhi.
